Beneath The Lights Of Versailles ...
Versailles,
on Christmas Eve. A jewel of aesthetic perfection, and
showcase steeped in history, this most luxurious of castles defies time
and trends. Its refined panelling and French-style gardens that so
fascinated
Christian Dior have now inspired a dazzling make-up
collection by
Tyen, Creator of Coulors for DIOR. Opulent gold, mother-of-pearl and pink unfurl across
the eyes, face and lips. A manicure becomes jewellery. The radiant
light of dusk glows. Or is it already dawn? On the skin, a glimmer of
rosy gold tells of an enchanted night.
Versailles, the night before Christmas. The magnificent château,
sublimated by winter light, inspires by Dior Holiday Collection.
Majestic shades of warm gold, frozen pearl and pink work their magic on
the skin, for a glorious yet refined feminity.
Discover the video DIOR 'Golden Winter' Christmas MakeUp Look 2013 - Application Secret - at the end of this post. Versailles works
its magic ... Complexion is illuminated with Diorific Perfumed
Illuminating Powder's golden shimmer. Eyes are captivating, dressed in
the 3 golds of the 5 Couleurs. Lips are blazing, enhanced with the
metallic effects of Diorific Lipstick, and nails take on a couture style
with glints of iridescence.
Round, voluptuous curves that exude sensuality; the pure, brilliant
colour of gold; a precious compact whose perfect lines contain a makeup
gem within ... The
Diorific compact houses a powder scented with
J’adore
and decorated with Massaï necklace pearls, which adorn the neck of the
perfume bottle. It is a promise of luminous, delicately shimmery and
scented beauty.
Gold is everywhere at Dior. Bringing the promise of splendour and
dreams, we see delicate touches of it on the neck of a perfume bottle,
in the embroidery of an evening gown, and in the eyeshadows of a makeup
palette ... Christian Dior himself loved the light of this precious metal
that brings to mind the grandeur of Versailles. This winter, gold is
continuing its enchanted dance with Dior creations and is the
inspiration behind the Golden Winter makeup collection, which
showcases a luminous complexion, metallic lips, couture nails and gold
eyes ...Versailles and its glittering gilded décor, paired with gold and
its alluring luster, are celebrating a dream-like winter on a beautiful
note.
Couture Nail Lacquer - Beneath the glittering gilded décor of Versailles, nails take center
stage. They sparkle and shine in the light of an enchanted winter. Nail
art expert Dior continues to innovate this season and has designed
Diorific Duo Manucure Bijou, a gold nail lacquer accompanied by
crystalline micro-pearls that are gently dusted onto the gold nail
polish to create a precious 3D manicure. Diorific Vernis is available in
three new shades, Minuit (plum), Marilyn (red) and Frimas (pink taupe),
which enhance the nails with deep, sparkling, ultra-couture shades.
Showcasing curves and delicacy, the tube is a precious gem in itself. It
could not better express the intensity of the lipstick within: Diorific
is available in a limited edition for the Golden Winter collection and
has been enriched with shimmery effects. Dressed in deep shades with a
metallic sheen, such as Diva (ruby red), Winter (plum) and Minuit
(fuchsia), lips appear luscious and velvety-smooth.
With 5-Color Palettes Golden Flower and Golden Snow featuring eyeshadows in starry colors, gold-toned eyeliner, etc., the Golden Winter
collection promises dream-like, luminous and sparkling beauty, like
that seen beneath the gilded décor of Versailles. Robed in gold and
light, the eyelids are illuminated and opened to reveal precious eyes,
which are strengthened by Rosy Gold de Diorshow Liner Waterproof. Gourmand, ultra-feminine shades of Dior Addict Gloss leave lips irresistibly luscious and feature names inspired by fairy tales: Enchanted Rose, Pink Fantasy… Enchanted beauty is the focus of the winter collection, a sunny, sophisticated world in itself, in which Diorshow Fusion Mono takes on the allure of Comète, and the 3-Color palette Rosewood Glow sparkles with the mysterious glow of icy pink.
The secrets of the Dior Golden Flower Look: Versailles opulent
gold infuses make-up with ultimate luxury and subtle sophistication:
eyes display the golden glow of Diorshow Fusion Mono, while Diorific
Jewel Manicure Duo adorns nails in the most precious fashion.
